NOTES
Non anthropocentric view
Object Oriented Ontology
Non-human phenomenology
Posthumanism
Non-relational aesthetics
Physicality of body influences image plus our perception of the image
How body can produce different frames/lighting etc
Roomba/drones/surveillance
Drone paper
Camera ability to capture that through nonhuman embodiment
Ex: Roomba, bird’s eye view, terminator, enter the void
The camera view allows one to experience philosophy rather than merely conceptualize it. (Schmerheim)
Camer’as perspective becomes expression of mental states and different consciousness (animal, post-mortem) (Schmerheim)
Self-conscious camera as key characteristic
Must experience phenomenology of camera [or non anthropocentric view] to understand the camera (Sparrow p 171)
